Size of each bed is 4’x12’. All that’s missing is the 50/50 loam compost mix for the one. Other needs a tilling and the extension as well.

Arm length, 4’ is just barely reachable to get the center. You want to avoid putting weight anywhere on the soil while tending so you don’t compact the soil. That removes one benefit of using raised beds.
Layout a tape on the ground, see where you can reach and touch. If it’s raised off the ground you get a little bit extra reach so you can try and emulate that to find a comfortable size.
I would do like 36-42” if I made new ones, but I just went with some premade 4’x2’s since they worked with my other area.
